Maersk Placentia Sold and renamed

The supply vessel Maersk Placentia it seems has been sold. I noticed a week ago her name was painted over.
Today, her new name. The Storm Express. The Maersk Placentia was built in 1983 and has serviced the Hibernia Platform since it began production in the 90's

Name painted over on the bow
